He noticed that people had already offered their prayer. So he went home and performed his Salat in congregation with his family members.\u201d (<em>Mu\u2019jam al-Kabir of Tabrani and authenticated by al-Haythami in Majma al-Zawaid)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If a second congregation was recommended or permissible, the Messenger of Allah (<strong>\ufdfa<\/strong>) would have not left the virtues of praying in the Masjid for his house.<\/p>\n<p>2) Also the practice of the Shabah shows that not one of them habitually performed Salaah in a second congregation.<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that in the situation where some people from the locality came and offered their Salaah in congregation, and other members of the locality were unaware, or the Salaah was offered before the stipulated timings of the Masjid, then it will be totally permissible for others to come and offer their Salaah in a second congregation upon the fixed timings, as this will be regarded as the \u2018main\u2019 Jamaah of the Masjid, and this will not fall under the mentioned prohibition.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore the situation in query, the Imaam performing a second congregation at the stipulated time of Jamaah will be permissible and not disliked.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>And Allah Ta\u2019\u0101la Knows Best<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mufti Arshad Ali<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Darul Iftaa, Jaamia Madinatul Uloom (Trinidad)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fatwa-tt.com\"><strong>www.fatwa-tt.com<\/strong><\/a><strong> \/<\/strong><a href=\"www.jaamia.net\"><strong>www.jaamia.net<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> \u00a0\u0648\u064a\u06a9\u0631\u0647 \u062a\u06a9\u0631\u0627\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u062c\u0645\u0627\u0639\u0629 \u0628\u0627\u0630\u0627\u0646 \u0648\u0627\u0642\u0627\u0645\u0629 \u0641\u06cc \u0645\u0633\u062c\u062f \u0645\u062d\u0644\u0629 \u0644\u0627 \u0641\u06cc \u0645\u0633\u062c\u062f \u0637\u0631\u064a\u0642 \u0627\u0648 \u0645\u0633\u062c\u062f \u0644\u0627 \u0627\u0645\u0627\u0645 \u0644\u0647 \u0648\u0644\u0627 \u0645\u0648\u0630\u0646 \u062f\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u062e\u062a\u0627\u0631<\/p>\n<p>\u0648\u0641\u06cc \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0627\u0645\u06cc \u0642\u0648\u0644\u0647 \u0648\u064a\u06a9\u0631\u0647 \u0627\u064a \u062a\u062d\u0631\u064a\u0645\u0627.. \u0631\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0645\u062d\u062a\u0627\u0631 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u062f\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u062e\u062a\u0627\u0631 1\/ 552<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u0642\u0627\u0644 \u0648\u0625\u0630\u0627 \u062f\u062e\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0642\u0648\u0645 \u0645\u0633\u062c\u062f\u0627 \u0642\u062f \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0641\u064a\u0647 \u0623\u0647\u0644\u0647 \u0643\u0631\u0647\u062a \u0644\u0647\u0645 \u0623\u0646 \u064a\u0635\u0644\u0648\u0627 \u062c\u0645\u0627\u0639\u0629 \u0628\u0623\u0630\u0627\u0646 \u0648\u0625\u0642\u0627\u0645\u0629 \u0648\u0644\u0643\u0646\u0647\u0645 \u064a\u0635\u0644\u0648\u0646 \u0648\u062d\u062f\u0627\u0646\u0627 \u0628\u063a\u064a\u0631 \u0623\u0630\u0627\u0646 \u0648\u0644\u0627 \u0625\u0642\u0627\u0645\u0629.. \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0628\u0633\u0648\u0637 \u0644\u0644\u0633\u0631\u062e\u0633\u06cc1\/ 135<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: Is it permissible to perform a second Jamaat (congregation) in the Masjid?
